You don't have to take out a 3G contract at the time of purchase, and with the WiFi only version you can purchase a separate MiFi dongle (http://www.three.co.uk/Mobile_Broadband/MiFi), which will give you 3G when you are out/away from a WiFi hotspot. Using MiFi you pay for the data received over the 3G network and not the £10 per month rental that you would pay with a 3G sim card that goes into the side of the iPad.

I forgot to add that I don't work for John Lewis, and whilst they aren't the cheapest, I like their ethos of sharing their profits with their workers and the company paying tax in the UK. (I'll now get off my soapbox).

HTH

Thanks Nick,
I'll check it out. I certainly like the sound of the MiFi
